Are you involved in music in Aberdeen?

Fill out the 57 North Aberdeen Music Sector Survey.

Angela's Volunteering Story

I've been in the habit of using an app on my mobile to record interviews anyway - the quality is great nowadays - so, even tho I'm a bit of a technophobe, I was able to move to recording most of show from my bedroom, with lots of support from shmu staff, and my teenage daughter here at home.
